The Met Gala

by Kathy Szwedzinskion May14, 2015

This year's theme for the much anticipated Costume Institute Gala, or as it is more commonly known, the Met Gala was China: Through the Looking Glass. This Vogue magazine annual event is probably the most anticipated and definitely our favourite to watch. Each year, celebrities and fashion designers are given the chance to turn up the volume in elegant, outrageous and over the top couture.

Looking through this year's best dressed pics, we couldn't help but notice that the Met Gala has it's own share of social groups, not unlike your school or uni formals. There are the Cool Girls, Quirky Girls, Drama Queens all strutting their stuff and looking ahmazing !! So we've rounded up the best of the best from this year's ball & created some of our own formal looks. So read on for some evening wear inspiration Ra Ra style.

Where you'll find her: In a computer lab or art studio, working on their latest project.
